Geno Wagner's Wantlist

To contact Geno Wagner, send email to illini_grad_90@yahoo.com

I love T202s--Any condition is fine, even the end or center panels that aren't intact! I’m working my way towards a Master Set with different backs, so I’ll take any T202, whether it’s on the list or not. I’m also trying to get a nice 1952 Topps set of Cubs and Red Sox, so I’m always looking for upgrades to those as well. Last, but not least, any cards or pics of Dick Hoblitzell are always appreciated – he’s the basis for my type set.

Dick “Doc” Hoblitzell cards
I am always looking for Hobitzell cards – he was a first baseman for the Reds and Red Sox and a Dentist in the WWI Army. I don’t have a specific list, I just like the fact that he’s in so many classic sets at a reasonable price. Plus, I found a cool picture of him to frame!

I have the following, but I’m always looking for upgrades/different backs—send me any:

1. T205
(90a) R. Hoblitzell (no stats on back) – I need this one, but it’s extremely rare!
(90b) R. Hoblitzell ("Cin." after 1908 in stats) – Need this one
(90c) R. Hoblitzel (name incorrect)
a) Sweet Caporal
(90d) R. Hoblitzell (no "Cin." after 1908 in stats)
a) Piedmont
